Joe Flacco completed 4 out of 5 passes on a long drive that also featured some good productive runs by Ray Rice and Bernard Pierce. Kamar Aiken; a guy battling to make the team in the last WR slot looked pretty good. The defense played very well. Rookie running back Lorenzo Taliaferro ran the ball extremely well. Back up QB Tyrod Taylor looked pretty good and carved up the 49’ers defense for a couple of very long runs of his own. Kyle “the secret weapon” Jusczyck caught 3 passes on 3 targets and proved how versatile he can be in this offense. A lot of people don’t realize he was a star TE in college.

Rookie MLB C.J. Mosely was all over the field making plays and recorded a sack. Asa Jackson in the battle for 3rd CB was making plays all night long and picked off a pass as well as veteran Dominique Franks.

Believe me when I tell you there are very few defenders that will run him down if he is in front of them. He’s a legitimate 4.5 or better. He can RUN. At close to 240 lbs. he’s beastly!

Fri, 08 Aug 2014 11:20:01 +0000http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=2272776#comment-3530557He definitely has game speed. He is much faster than his 40 time suggests. With Gore and Hyde as a 1, 2 punch, the 49ers are going to run at will against any team. If Hyde had run a 4.5 40 at the combine he would have went earlier and possibly the 1st back selected. The 4 49ers stole one here and are going punish defenses with a smash mouth running game. The play action is going to open wide up with Davis and Boldin being the biggest benefactors of it. Hyde looks to be primed for a prominent role in the 49ers offense. Looking forward to Preseason Week 2 and Hyde getting 10+ carries.
